It is equally relevant where structural movement, access limits, or planning expectations make a straightforward fix unrealistic without a proper assessment first. In decision-stage terms, this is often where teams move from broad options into method selection, sequencing, and budget alignment.
In practice, a clear plan from the start gives owners, facilities teams, and contractors a safer path to completion with fewer surprises during delivery.
